A long-tailed bird perches among branches and flowering foliage, its orange bill and red eye standing out against carefully articulated feathers. The pale paper leaves the surrounding landscape open, directing attention towards the relationships between bird, leaf and blossom. Made in 2025 in acrylic and graphite, the work brings close observation into an image whose colour and pattern invite lingering attention.
